The Macon County Emergency Telephone System Board is used in
the event of an emergency within Macon County. Alerts are
sent out with potentially lifesaving messages regarding
critical events such as chemical leaks, active shooter
situations, etc.

This information will be sent to residents
who have signed up online and to any resident who uses a
land line telephone. If you only use a cell phone, you will
not receive these critical notifications unless you sign
up on line.

Alerts for significaht weather events
such as the near miss we had recently are also
among the notifications residents may sign up for.
The Alert System is able to send Village Alerts to anyone who signs
up for alerts such as, but not limited to, boil orders,
road closures or construction, and winter weather closures.
There are several ways to receive an alert: Text, phone call,
email, TTY /TTD, or using the ContactBridge app found in
the App Store.

County Emergency Alert & Notification System, please log in
to verify your contact information is up to date.
